Does a stereo amplifier have enough output to power 250 ohm headphones? (www.reddit.com)

Hey r/headphones!

So I bought a Technics SU-V500m2 amplifier secondhand to power my turntable. Unfortunately it lacks a manual and I cant find any information on it online.

Now I want to buy myself a pair of Beyerdynamics DT990Pro to listen to my records on this system, but I have no idea if it will have enough juice to power the 250 ohms the DTs have.

Any help or maybe different headphone recommendation is welcome!

Ohms AND sensitivity together make up how hard to drive a headphone will be.
